Paintbox

Em           D             Em                 D
    Painting pictures of a thousand different paths
Em           D            Em                 D
We sketch an outline of a love that hopes to last
Em        D          Em                 D
Casting a wand over imaginary hopes
Em            D                Em               D
And close our eyes so we don't feel the ebb and flow

[Chorus]
    C             D      C         D
And paintbox, you are my only hope
   G                                             D
of covering the faded past and starting out once more
       C              C            C           C
With a fortune in new colours, new hopes to inspire
  G                D                G         D       Em
I paint the path I want to take and paint the life of fire

[Verse 2]
Em      D             Em                D
Marking out our lives full of different plans
  Em         D               Em                    D
Excitedly we hold the key to change our hearts and hands
Em           D              Em                 D
We climb the hill to see if green fields lie beyond
Em          D               Em            D
    Only to realise they've faded now and gone

[Chorus]
    C             D      C         D
And paintbox, you are my only hope
   G                                             D
of covering the faded past and starting out once more
       C              C            C           C
With a fortune in new colours, new hopes to inspire
  G                D                G         D       Em
I paint the path I want to take and paint the life of fire

[Verse 1]
Em           D             Em                 D
    Painting pictures of a thousand different paths
Em           D            Em                 D
We sketch an outline of a love that hopes to last
Em        D          Em                 D
Casting a wand over imaginary hopes
Em            D                Em               D
And close our eyes so we don't feel the ebb and flow

[Chorus]
    C             D      C         D

  G                D                G         D       Em
I paint the path I want to take and paint the life of fire
